Ch 69: Be careful and don't open your mouth

"Oh my! Why are all of you looking so tense? There is no need to bow down in front of me. I am not even the acting queen right now."

The queen spoke, but reach word caused more pressure on her subjects.

Rucia was the only one who could look at the queen properly, and that was only because she was used to this pressure from her blood-related aunt.

"Queen Heela, this is not where someone of your status should come and check out. The emperor has allowed me all the control over this case, and I promise I will overlook it."

Rucia was quick to diffuse the situation.

She did not know if the queen was involved in this prank, but Rucia knew the queen was there to destroy the evidence of what had happened here.

The queen's alpha scent filling the room was enough to tell Rucia that the queen did not want the foreign smell to contaminate this room any further.
